John and I debated about Firefox. We were about to release 4.3RC1 with FFv2-gtk1 but it was pulled at the last moment. FFv2 uses way more ram than our current one. The thought was that many of the smaller ram machines would not be able to run the newer version.

The Firefox project started as an alternative to Mozilla to be a small footprint browser. But now like most all things it too is quite large.
